well....i was previously a 05 accord owner til my car got totalled in a wreck, now im looking into a '06 RSX-S. i need some persuasion. Altho im pretty bent on getting it already . what i really need to know is, like, i gues, what are some of you guys experiences with the car?

just introducing myself cause i might become a part of the RSX family

 

I'm verty happy with it.

Its a reliable car thats a good daily driver with a huge aftermarket.

The only real problem is that some people have problems with the leather and the grind in the tranny (I think thats fixed in 05+ RSXs though). My 02 has none of these problems however and the tranny is very smooth.

 

thanks for the information crazy, yea, im thinking hard about this,but im about 90% positive that i want it.

 

Oh yeah, I forgot to add that I got my RSX in Aug 01 and by then the RX-8 was still over a year away but if I could do it over again I would have gotten a manual RX-8. The only downsides to it vs. the RSX is gas mileage, aftermarket and that it needs more maintanence and care but its way better handling, braking, looking, 4 doors, more space, better looking imo, nice interior imo and I like rotaries. But most people wouldn't agree with me and they'd say to spring for a used S2000

 

Why don't you spring for a used S2000? more power, rear wheel drive, and will definatley be more rare than an RSX, not to mention much better looking thn the RSX, IMO.

 

i would, but i usually go out alot (with friends) and having a 2 seater ONLY doesnt fit my lifestyle. if i was a lonely guy i'd deffinately get one

 

lol that almost sounds like a diss to s2k owners..

 

lol, didn't mean it as a diss, it's just that i usually carry more than 1 person with me at a time, the only time i dont, is when going to work. i kinda do wish that i didnt go out as much cause i love the cars, but meh, the RSX will have to do for now

 

Then get an RX-8

Very similar to the S2000 but a little less performance a little more space and 4 doors.

 

and 15 MPG and a bunch of weird problems h:
